In 1921, a controversial military exercise demonstrated to the world the power of aerial warfare in the naval domain.

Could Privatizing Social Security Save the System from Collapse?
*Trevor Filseth* *Social Security, * There would be an obvious political cost to this. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *A model for such privatization could be Norway’s investment fund, which has invested roughly $1 trillion in private assets, mostly stocks, around the world. Last year, the Norwegian fund gained roughly eleven percent in value, compared to Social Security’s measly 0.99 percent—meaning that in real terms, the Social Security fund actually *lost* money because its growth rate was smaller than the inflation rate.

These Russian Weapons Would Give any Adversary Nightmares

In our last article, we discussed the possibility of Russia and China going to war. Relations between the two are currently fairly good, and war between the two countries is seemingly unlikely.
